There are 16 posts on page 9, maybe 2 of them are close to being on topic... The rest including this one are noise and nothing to do with the process of gaining control of the car. If I was running TMC, I would make it so the thread's author could "collapse" off topic posts (click to expand...

In fact, Tesla broke the features by being lazy and hacking together the software stack rather than designing it. What they should have done is set-up facades for services on their servers and that way backend changes would not require changes to the clients. Anyway @green1 is right, I suspect...

from the website that thought Pokemon Go on Model S was a real thing? ;)

I was referring to the suggestion that has been repeated here by some that users should be forced to update to whatever version Tesla deems they should run. I'm aware that the changes that have broken those functions in my car are server side changes; alas there's no better way to make your...

I'm also an "update-refuser" or whatever you want to call it... I'm on 6.2.x and it's now broken in the way that Green1 describes in the OP. I have a non-AP car, and the changes they made to the dash for 7.x are rubbish... couldn't give two shits about the odometer (thanks for moving that to...

I asked them last summer after I read a number of people saying they got good trade-in values. Mine even had right around 10k km and it has TP, maybe the low trade-in was because it's green w/ grey interior or maybe the sales guy was just being mean that day. :P It's no rumour, that's...

When I responded it was a true 40, I meant yes it's actually a 40 as in yes, there are still a few of us left driving around with a 60 kWh battery that has with a SoC charge cap of 72% which is actually a 42kWh, if we are being pedantic. :D As I've stated previously, it's actually more then 15K...

One would expect that if the pack were swapped on any other battery configuration of model S (60->85, 60->90, 85->90, 90->120+), it would work with no software configuration changes. The firmware would read the battery/pack fuse/drive train combination and be know how to fully utilize it...

It's a true 40, I actually took delivery of the car on June 24th of 2013 after waiting 3 years and 7 months and 20 something days... Guess that explains why I never got that particular email. The only thing that needs to change is the firmware, probably 2 lines in a config file, 1 to set the...

I'll inquire about it when I speak to them this week. My 12V battery is reporting it's dying again. I might have to buy the 90 get it installed and take the car to my buddy's shop, drop the pack out and swap it with the buyer's pack if Tesla is going to be a PITA about it. :\

Actually, I did look into that. Tesla offered me $35K CAD for my 40, the cheapest CPO listed on http://ev-cpo.com/ in Canada is $80K for a non-AP P85. It is >$10K cheaper for me to purchase a brand new 90kWh battery. That's why I'm looking to find out if anyone is trading in a pack. Maybe if...

Hi All, I have 40kWh Tesla, because the supercharger network can now finally reach the place I'd most like to take the car, I'd like to make the leap to upgrade to 85kWh / 90kWh pack... Given how little I drive (20k km in 3 years), it's hard to justify the cost of a new 90kWh pack. Maybe you...

Don't have anything to say about the Marriott. I met the manager of the Heights @ Eastwood Towne Center in Lansing when I was charging there about 20 days ago. Nice guy, wants to get his charger added as a destination charger (I sent an email to Tesla about it, no response). Said it was a...

The car is lifted 4(?) bolts are removed a 60kWh battery is removed, a bigger 85 or 90kWh battery is bolted on, car is lowered, firmware is replaced. The parts, procedure and labour are identical. The company choose to sell a product at a loss (or lower margin), so I should pay them 10K...

I have a S40. They are the same as a the S60, except charging is limited to a max charge of 68%, which is supposed to work out to 42 kWh (making up for the fact that the car is actually heavier then the S40 was spec'd to be, so it wouldn't have been able to achieve the spec'd range for the 40...

I looked at that, but I could only find a pair of CHAdeMO chargers of any significant power (I think they were both in Vaughan or something)... Nothing that would enable long distance travel.

@kr200 I'm guessing you'll go through Illinois rather then take the ferry from Muskegon to Milwaukee :D It would be interesting to know what the advice the nav gives you, at 320 you should be able to get all the way to Comber SC without needing to stop at Woodstock SC. Also Does the nav tell...

Hi All, I have a lovely S40. Beginning of this month I completed a trip from Toronto to West Michigan to visit family and attend Electric Forest in Rothbury. I broke up the trip with some overnight stops in Detroit on the way there and back. I charged at Ingersoll (Suncountry Highway)...

What did people use for high amperage service disconnect or did you guys not have one?

Still, since I took the trip before and charged a 3 chargers along the way (not destination chargers), it would be nice if the Nav could incorporate those... even if it has to pop up a warning saying those chargers are non-tesla chargers and should be verified before departing. Sadly, my...

As a 40 owner with the Tech Package who just got the update today, I can confirm that Supercharging and Nav must both be enabled for Trip Planner to do it's thing. I don't have SC, so trip planner does not route through any chargers when I tell it to plot a long trip (one I took before and...

VIN 12xxx 40KwH, received iOS notification ~ 10:15p EST, update took a little over an hour.
